Candlestick Structure [LuxAlgo]The Candlestick Structure indicator detects major market trends and displays various candlestick patterns aligning with the detected trend, filtering out potentially unwanted patterns as a result. Multiple trend detection methods are included and can be selected by the users.
A dashboard showing the alignment percentage of each individual pattern is also provided.
🔶 USAGE
By distinguishing major and minor trend detection, we can still detect patterns based on minor trends, yet filter out the patterns that do not align with the major trend.
By detecting candlestick patterns that align with a major trend, we can effectively detect the ending points of retracements, potentially providing various entry points of interest within a trend.
Users are able to track the alignment of each candlestick pattern in the dashboard to reveal which patterns typically align with the trend and which may not.
Note: Alignment % only checks if the pattern's direction is the same as the current trend direction. These are only raw readings and not any type of confidence score.
🔶 DETAILS
In this indicator, we are identifying and tracking 16 different Candlestick Patterns.
🔹 Bullish Patterns
Hammer: Identified by a small upper wick (or no upper wick) with a small body, and an elongated lower wick whose length is 2X greater than the candle body’s width.
Inverted Hammer: Identified by a small lower wick (or no lower wick) with a small body, and an elongated upper wick whose length is 2X greater than the candle body’s width.
Bullish Engulfing: A 2 bar pattern identified by a large bullish candle body fully encapsulating (opening lower and closing higher) the previous small (bearish) candle body.
Rising 3: A 5 bar pattern identified by an initial full-bodied bullish candle, followed by 3 bearish candles that trade within the high and low of the initial candle, followed by another full-bodied bullish candle closing above the high of the initial candle.
3 White Soldiers: Identified by 3 full-bodied bullish candles, each opening within the body and closing below the high, of the previous candle.
Morning Star: A 3 bar pattern identified by a full-bodied bearish candle, followed by a small-bodied bearish candle, followed by a full-bodied bullish candle that closes above the halfway point of the first candle.

quantized pin bar indicator with ATRAbstract
This script computes the strength of pin bars.
This script uses the corrent and the previous two bars to compute the strength of pin bars.
The strength of pin bars can be also comared with average true range, so we can evaluate those pin bars are strong or weak.
Introduction
Pin bar is a popular price action trading strategy.
It is based on quick price rejection.
Most of existing pin bar scripts only determine if a bar is a pin bar or not.
However, evaluating the strength of pin bars is important.
If price rejection is too weak, it is difficult to trigger trend reversal.
If a pin bar is too strong, we may enter the trade too late and cannot have good profit.
In this script, it provides a method to compute to strength of pin bars.
After the strength of pin bars are quantized, they can compare with average true range, price range and trend strength, which can help us to determine where are worthy for us to open trades.
Computation
Bullish hammer : current low is lower than ( previous high or current open ) and current close.
Bearish gravestone : current high is higher than ( previous low or current open ) and current close.
Bullish engulfing and harami : ( current low or previous low ) is lower than ( previous 2nd high or previous open ) and current close.
Bearish engulfing and harami : ( current high or previous high ) is higher than ( previous 2nd low or previous open ) and current close.
Parameters
Smoothing : the type of computing average.
Length of ATR : determines the number of true ranges for computing average true range.
ATR multiplier line : the threshould that a pin bar is strong enough. For example, if this value is 0.5, it means a pin bar with 0.5*atr or more is considered a strong pin bar.
one direction pinbar : set to 1 if you want the strength of bullish pin bars and bearish pin bars are cancelled. Set to 0 if you want to keep both strength of bullish pin bars and bearish pin bars; in this case, you may need to change the plot style to make both strength visible.
Trading Suggestions
Evaluate the strength of trend against pin bars. After all, a single reverse pin bar may be too weak to reverse the trend.
Timeframe : if atr is higher than 4*spread, the timeframe is high enough. However, if strong pin bars appear too frequent or price range is too small, going to higher fimeframe may be more safe.
Entry and exit : according to personal flavors.
Conclusion
The strength of pin bars can be quantized.
With this indicator, we can find more potential pin bars which human eyes and binary pattern detectors were leaked.
In my opinion, 0.5*atr is the most suitable streng of a pin bar for my trade entry but I still need to consider the direction of the trend.

Bullish and Bearish by NicolErazoFThis indicator changes the color of the candlesticks when there’s a change in the trend to the rising or falling trend.
BEARISH ENGULFING: Yellow candlestick. It is an engulfing falling trend reversal; you must make a sell decision.
BEARISH HARAMI: White candlestick. Indicates a possible falling trend change, you must be alert for a possible sale.
BULLISH ENGULFING: Black candlestick. It is a change in the engulfing rising trend, you must make a purchase decision.
BULLISH HARAMI: Blue candlestick. Indicates a possible rising trend change, you should be alert for a possible purchase.
On the chart, you can see the 4 candles, on September 11 the black candle appears indicating a change in the uptrend. But today, the white candle is seen, which appears on September 8, indicating a rebound with a possible change in trend to bearish.
Previous days, on August 26, you see the blue candle with a possible change in the upward trend, which then, on August 28, a yellow candle appears with a change in the downward trend.
The Engulfing indicator (yellow and black) says that the candle has an engulfing change that is radical.
On the other hand, the Harami (blue and white) indicates a possible change in trend that must be previously analyzed.
Harami candles are smaller than Engulfing candles, since Harami in a Japanese term that means pregnancy, where the previous candle is the woman and the next candle is the baby.

Candlesticks Patterns IdentifiedI was using another script that colored the bars to show the different candle patterns. Thanks to HPotter (www.pulsewire.com). Unfortunately, I can't think that fast when looking across a screen of charts with different color bars. Fortunately, Tradingview came up with symbols and names on 2/26/15. I decided to take my favorite symbols and attach them to a name. This makes it easier to see what is going on and where your entry would be if it confirms. Works beautifully for me. Decided to share. I also added the ability to alter what shows up based upon a look back. A bullish engulfing at the top of a trend, or a bearish harami at the bottom of the trend, is nearly useless and clutters the chart. I have the default set for the open of the current bar to be higher or lower than the open from 5 bars back. You can adjust in the settings to what you like. This trend setting is on all the patterns except doji. If you want to see all the candle patterns, set it to "1".
The doji can be adjusted as well. I left some other patterns at the bottom of the script, but they are turned off. They became too much of a clutter for me. I prefer DovCaspi's pattern finder for hammers and stars: I use his due to the clean appearance.
The default script has: Doji, Bearish Harami, Bullish Harami, Bearish Engulfing, Bullish Engulfing, Piercing Line, Bullish Belt, Bullish Kicker, and Bearish Kicker. You can turn off what you don't like. The Piercing Line, Bullish Belt, and the Kickers will usually show up better in the daily charts.
